The above prides are quoted as they are given in the Stock Exchange List, but it is generally admitted that they by uo means represent the full value of the different shares quoted, the prices of which ought to, and will doubtless be, much higher. _ _ Applications for shares maybe mado in the form annexed, and must be aocompanied by the payment of D. per share.

Contrary to general expectation, there jwas a very fair field for the Leamington, 10 out of the 14 coloured on the oard coming to the post for it. Bradamante was made the favourite, and two or three others, including Redcap and Revolver, were backed for some amount at 6 to 1 each. The race waalleft;entirely to the two last named, Lord Hastings' colt having a little the best of it all the way, and winning very easily at last by a length. The favourite never showed conspicuously in the race, and Catch-'em was beaten a long way from the winner. The Short's Handicap saw a ♦ery warm favourite defeated in Lord Westmoreland's Practi tioner, who, after delaying the start by repeated breaks away, was cleverly deprived of the lead opposite the Stand by Hawkshaw, and beaten by a neck. There was a good finish for the Castle Park Stakes between Auditor, Brown Willy. and the favourite Volatile, terminating in favour of the green and white braid" by a neck. The ever.fresh Caller On indulged Stanton and her two other opponents with the lead in the Queen's Plate, but shook them all off opposite the Stand, and won in a cantor.

The Corpora tion, besides, is intrusted with the management of various trust funds for public objects, one of . the most important of which is that raised by the coal duties, which until lately formed part of the ordinary revenue of the Corporation, but which are now applicable to certain specific purpose s under the operation of Acts of Parliament. The duty of 4d a ton on coals yielded last year in gross £84,019 13s 4d. For some years past the principal charge on it has been the interest on loans to the amount of £540,000, borrowed for the Cannon-street improvements. The interest last year amounted to £19,493 14s Bd, and £40,708 of the fund was expended in meeting bonds falling due within the year. From 1872 to 1882 the fund will be applied, under express legislation, to defruy tha mat of rniginp: Ilolborn Valley. It remains applicable until 1872 to the liquidation of the debt in respect of the Cannon-street improvements. Again, the ninepenny coal duty yielded last year a gross sum of £191,069, less a drawback of £22,135, and the duty on wine £10,262. Of thls joint fund £175,868 odd was paid. _ . within the year to the credit of the Lords of the Treasury pursuant to Act of Parliament, to the account of the Tham es Embankment and Metropolis Improvement Fund, to whi,cl2 it is now chiefly applicable. The Bridge-house estat realized within the year £39,471, of which £24,747 odd was applied towards liquidating the cost of rebuilding L 3n don-bridge and of the repairs of that of Blackfriars, 'The cost of the new bridge at Blackfriars and of the tempo rary structure there will be borne by the Bridge-house est ates, the annual rental of which amounts to about £40,000. It is but fair to add that nearly all the excessive expendi ture by the Corporation of late has been dictated by publio spirit and with the view to public improvements, and that the Coal, Corn, and Finance Committee, while deprecating excess in this direction, have invariably said the general condition of the corporate revenues was on the whole satis factory.

PROSPECTUS, This Company is an extension of the Credit Foncier (Limited) and of the Credit Mobilier (Limited) which were established, the former for financial business in connection with land, the latter for general financial operations. The unexampled success achieved by those companies, whose reports, just published, show the amount of net profits,upon a paid-up capital amounting jointly to £lOO,OOO, to be at the rate of upwards of 190 per cent. per annum, and who have each declared a dividend and bonus of £2 per share on £5 paid for less than six months' working, besides carrying £40,000 to the reserve fund, and the enormous ac cession of business of both companies render it absolutely essential to increase the capital, and thus enlarge the basis of their operations. With this view it has been determined to found the pre sent powerful institution, which will abserb the two com panies, and will take over the whole of their assets, include ing their united reserve fund, amounting to £40,000. and will also of course assume their engagements, and the Directors' believe that the increased means the issue of new capit 11 will place in their hands will enable them to effect even greater results than have been already achieved. The distribution of the shares will be made in the follow • ing manner, by which it will be seen that a liberal propor tion has been appropriated for allotment amongst the gene ral public. 10,000 Shares will be issued to the shareholders of the Credit Foncier (Limited) at par, in exchange for the like number of shares now held by them. 20,000 Shares will (at their option) be allotted to the share holders of the Credit Foncier (Limited) (being at at the rate of three new shares for eaoh share held in that Company), which will be issued as follows, viz.: —Two of such shares at a premium of £2 13s 4d per share, and for every two shares so taken one additional share at par. 10,000 Shares will be issued to the shareholders of the Credit Mobilier (Limited) at par, in exchange for the like number of shares in that Company now held by them. 30,000 Shares will be allotted (at their option) to the share holders of the Credit Mobilier (Limited) (being at the rate of three new shares for each share held in that Company), which will be issued as fol lows, viz. :—Two of such shares at a premium of £L 138 4d per share, and for every two shares so taken one additional share at par. 20,000 Shares will be issued to the public at a premium of £2 138 4:1 per share. ICO,OOO The total premium on the above mentioned shares will amount to £160,000, which, with the sum of £40,000, the amount of the reserve funds of the Credit Fonder (Limited), and of the Credit Mobilier (Limited), wilt be carried to the reserve fund of the amalgamated Company, which will then amount to £200,000. The amount to be called up, viz., £5 per share on the shares issued at a premium, together with the £2 13s 1d per share premium thereon, to be paid by the following instal mer ts On application £1 per share, to be carried to capital account. On allotment, £2 per share, of which £1 to be carried to capital account and £1 to be carried to premium account. 10th December, £1 13s 4d per share to be carried to pre mium account, 10th February, 1865, £1 lOs per share to be carried to capital account. 10th April, 1865, £1 10s, per share to be carried to capi tal accouut. The amount to be called up, viz,, £5 per share on the shares issued at par, to be paid as follows, viz.:— On application, £1 per share; on allotment, per share; 10th February, 1865, 10s. per share ; 10th April, 1865, £1 10s. per share—which will be carried to capital account. But as all the shares will participate in the next divi dend declared, pro rata, according to the amount paid up, the valuable option has been re3erved, enabling all allot tees to pay up the instalments immediately on allotment, or at any time in advance of thei r b ein g due, u p t o £ 5 per share. The total amount of paid-up capital will be £500,000, and the reserve fund will amount to £200,000.

According to the decision of the judges on Monday night that there was no race, the great skiff match between Cham bers and Cooper for £2OO a-side came off to-night on the Tyne shortly after 6, the course being from the High Level to Scotswood-bridge, four miles. An immense concourse assembled. The excitement was intense. Chambers, who was the popular favourite, took the lead, and kept it, coming in winner by above 200 yards. The public enthusiasm is something extraordinary. YACHT RACE. A novel and exciting match between two cutter yachts commenced yesterday on the waters of the Solent. Mr Josiah Jones and Mr Thomas Seddon, members of the Mersey Royal Yacht Club, determined to wind up their year's sailing with a match betw een th e i r cu tt ers Th oug ht and Torpid, three days' racing, the vessel winning two days out of three to be the winner ; each yacht to be sailed with fore and aft sails only, to be fitted complete, with boats, Ice. ' and to carry in her hold 17 tons of lead ballast ; the winner of the match to take both yachts, with £2OO stakes. The Thought, the property of Mr Jones, is 15 years old, timber built and coppered, 28 tons Thames measurement, and is celebrated for her racing qualities. The Torpid is a new vessel, built of iron and steel, by Messrs Summers and Day, of Southampton, and having been but a short time in the water, nothing of course was known of her qualities, except that she was expressly designed and built for a thorough clipper. The Medina steamer, from Southampton, was hired to accompany the yachts over each day's course, and the starting post was to be at the two cutter yachts Banshee and Astarte (the former belonging to Mr Jones and the latter to Mr Seddon), moored oft the end of Ryde pier, the two competing craft starting from between these two vessels, and finishing their course at the same point. The first day's racing was twice round the Rcyal Victoria Yacht Club course, the second round the Isle of Wight, and the third again twice round the Victoria course. If one vessel won the first and second day's race, of course her owner became the owner of both vessels and the money staked. The Medina steamer, with a large company on board, and with the two umpires, arrived at Ryde pier at 10 a.m., and at 10 20 the vessels were started, the Thought with one reef down in her mainsail, second jib and foresail, and jib headed topsail. The Torpid carried her whole mainsail, with a balloon foresail. The wind was about W.S.W., fresh, with a breezy look overhead, and the tide flood. The yachts on the signal being given ran up their headsails, and, cant ing round, commenced their course eastward, the Torpid being first off and taking a clear lead of two lengths, The wind lulled somewhat in running down to the Roman fort staging, and the Torpid, with her larger spread of can vass, drew on her antagonist. In hauling np the Wi n d after passing the Norman, the wind again freshened, and the little craft tore along with their lee gunwales well awash. The wind came in puffs as the Nab lightvessel (the eastern cud of the course) was neared, at times giving as much as the vessels could carry, when the Thought would seem to gain on the Torpid, the latter , ho wever, g oin g along hand somely under the pilotage of the well-known Jack Nicholls. The Thought was under the pilotage of Herbert. The Nab was reached and jibbed on the port hand as follows : Torpid, llh smin 17sec ; Thought, 11h finain 48,ec. It was r ticklish work jibbing over the immense booms with the lee bulwarks under water, but captains and pilots were old hands at the business, and it was gallantly done. Main sheets wore now hauled well aft as the course was laid west. ward, the Thought keeping the same sail set, but the Torpid soon after jibbing sent down her topsail and housed her top mast, and was soon found to be doing better without it, and increasing her lead. The Thought very soon afterwards followed suit, for her topsail for some time had been of no great service. In lulling, on passing the Nowell, another pull was took at main and head sheets. At this point of the race the Torpid seemed the more powerful vessel of the two, and to be steadily although slowly increasing her lead. At llh 35min she went about and made a board inshore, but the Thought was kept on her reach until llh 46min, when she made a short board inshore towards the Hyde sand. The Torpid was now going through the water like a spirit, winning hand over hand, and utterly belying her name by proving that she possessed nothing " torpid" in her nature in the presence of a fresh breeze. When the Thought went about at 12h 7min in Ryde roads, just to windward of start , ins vessels, the Torpid was standing down N,W., with her PR1CE...—....4d. STAMPED:....Sd. head for the west buoy of the middle, the western extremity of the course, and was walking away from the Thought in a surprising manner. It was evident that under the conditions of the weather she was overpowering her antagonist, and, without any unforeseen accident occurring, the day's race must be hers. The presence of Penney, too, on board of her was a sufficient guarantee that no part of the advan tage gained by her would be lost if skill and forethought could prevent it, The wind was now west by south, steady, and fresh as ever with it, and the harder it blew the more the Torpid seemed to like it, and danced over the waves gloriously. The Thought seemed too much pressed by the head under her second jib, but there would be no time or chance for shifting it for a smaller one until the western mark-boat had been rounded. This was reached and luffed round by the Torpid at 12h 29rn 50sec, and the Thought at 12h 3Sm 35sec. The Torpid sent up her topmast and hoisted her jib-heatled topsail for her run to the eastward, but the Thought's topsail was kept down as she followed on the same course, In nearing the Noman the Torpid took in her topsail and sent down her topmast, while the Thought at the same time sent her topmast on deck, and made preparations for shifting her jib. The Torpid had increased her lead in the run to the Noman under her greater press of canvass, but the crew of the Thought were doing their best in preparing their vessel for her work back to the westward in sending her topmast on deck and in shifting her second jib for her fourth. The Noman was passed, and as St Helen's Bay was opened and the vessels hauled up for their course to the Nab they felt the full pressure of the wind in their sails, and again began to be somewhat lively in their motions, leaving each a riband of foam on their track through the tumbling waters under their sterns, and literally covering their decks with broad sheets of angry hissing, seas. The Nab was jibed round by the Torpid at lh 40m 55sec, and by the Thought at lh 53m 10sec. There was a nasty roll of sea off the Nab, - but the Thought was jibbed round in beautiful style, and com menced her pursuit of her rival to the westward with her sheets well in. " A stern chase is a long chase," according to the old seaman's rule, but the Thought's crew appeared nothing disheartened as they dashed their gallant little vessel at the seas in pursuit of the Torpid, which, stiff as a house under her canvass, was again forereaching in the amazing style she displayed in the last turning bout to the westward. The latter vessel was the first to go about, and made a short bend inshore, but at 2h 5m had again brought her head in the same direction as the Thought. The wind was steadily freshening, and both craft had quite enough of it as they reached over the Warner Shoal, the Thought, indeed, almost too much of it, as each blast pressed her lee gunwale under water. At 2 15 p.m. the Torpid took a reef in her mainsail, and directly afterwards the Thought was shook up in the wind and a second reef taken in hers. This was soon followed by a third reef, the breeze hal increased to half a gale, and the plucky Thought was being altogether overpowered by the force of the wind and sea as she plunged her head in the seas, loading her decks with water, and flinging the spray over her masthead, The Torpid was known to be somewhere ahead, but where she was exactly could not well be ascer tained, owing to the blinding spray ; but the 15-year old "crack" was kept at it although all hope of her winning the day's race, barring accidents, was now gone. The Torpid could be seen at times in her position ahead, gallantly slashing along. Her spars might give way certainly, but at present they were all right, and while they continued so her game was safe. The Torpid, under her able management, continued to keep her spars all safe, and at 2 56 p.m. lulled round the west buoy of the middle, and eased off her sheets for the goal, where she arrived at 3h 17m 30s, the Thought following round the buoy, at 3h 15m 30s, and finished at the goal 20m 30s behind the Torpid. The Thought was thus beaten considerably in time in her first day's race, but she was not dishonoured. She was sent on the race too light in ballast under almost any circum stances of wind and weather—the fault of her owner, who perhaps placed too great confidence in her sailing powers when she was pitted against a vessel expressly designed and built to beat her. The weather, too, was all in favour of the Torpid with her large midship bearings, but had it been light winds the results of the day's sailing might have been reversed. As it was, Penney, the pilot of the Torpid, added another leaf to his laurels as a thorough yacht sailor by his vessel's victory. To-day the Thought has a chance, round the Isle of Wight or inside the island, according to the wea ther, of yet proving the victor, but it is almost too much to expect such a result at this season of the year from a really old craft like the Thought. The City of London. The appearance within the last few days of a blue-book prepared by the Chamberlain of London invites attention to the state of the Corporation finances, a subject but little understood beyond the precincts of Guildhall. Of late the heavy charges imposed upon the civic resources, ample and buoyant as these are, for extraordinary purposes have occa sioned a feeling of uneasiness in the Court of Common Council ; the subject has more than once given rise to grave discussion among theta, and the standing committee at their body whose especial duty it is to watch over the financial concerns of the Corporation, have again and again enjoined on them the necessity of caution and moderation. Previous to the division by Act of Parliament of the coal duties in 1861 to purposes as well without as within the city, the average revenues of the corporation from ordinary sources in the ten years ending with 1863 amounted to £212,600 a year, or about half as much as those of some of the minor German States. The annual average of late, allowing for that change, has been £157,100. At the end of last year the Corporation had, by operations extending over a series of years, anticipated its income by £323,018 ; in other words, it was in debt to that amount. That was the exact excess of its liabilities over assets at that time on its purely monetary transactions, and but for the fortuitous circum stance of the sale at the beginning of 1863 of 20,000 shares in the Metropolitan Railway, at a profit of £57,437 odd, the Corporation would have been so much the more in debt. The sale, by the way, resulted in a net produce of £257,437, of which the sum just mentioned was clear gain, Against the debt, however, the value of the Corporation freehold and leasehold estates, market sites, vacant ground, and public buildings ought properly to be set, which would turn the scale greatly in its favour. The li abilities include loans raised for the purpose of the Metropolitan Cattle-market, £113,000 ; for the city improvements—viz., New Cannon street, £405,000 ; Threadneedle-street, £40,000 ; for meeting outstanding engagements (Reserve Fund), £350,000 ; for Pauper Lunatic Asylum, £43,509 ; for Metropolitan Meat and Poultry Market, site and western approach, £125,000. There are other liabilities contingent on the failure of trust funds—namely, loans for Cannon-street Improvement (temporary), £30,000 —and bonds issued for rebutlding the Royal Exchange , £ 85,000, and for repairing Blackfriars Bridge, £53,100. The total amount of liabilities was £1,582,080 14s 6d at the end of 1863, Of this sum, £160,000 fell due in the present year, and had to be pro vided for, and £200,000 more will become due in 1865. In less than three years, in fact, the bond debts of the Corpo ration have increased considerably upwards of a quarter of a million of money. At the close of 1861 they amounted to £1,463,100—0f 1562 to £1,526,100—0f 1563 to £1,578,100 — and at this last-mentioned date contracts had been entered into with reference to the present year which would raise the outstanding obligations to £1,772,100, or £300,000 more than they were at the and of 1861. Notwithstanding that the Common Council have such faith in the elasticity of the Corporation resources that they were lately urging the First Commissioner of Works to intrust them with the making of the proposed new street from 13Iackfriars to the Mansion-house, in connection with the Thames Embank ment, at the estimated cost of about £700,000, the Cham berlain has since felt it his duty to direct their particular attention to the fact that the cash of the city will be over drawn by the 10th of October next in a probable sum of £43,320 odd, caused by an excess of expenditure over and above the ordinary income of the Corporation, and that sums amounting in the whole to £121,303 had been recently voted by them for the extraordinary works or for leasehold investments, and had to be provided for out of the current revenue—namely, far improvements of the Guildhall £26,700 —supplementary vote for same, £5,000, for pur-, chase of an oyster meter's place, £l,ooo—for dwellings for the labouring poor, £37,015 ; towards improvements in Newgate-street, £3,000 ; for the Pauper Lunatic Asylum (supplementary), £20,000 ; for a police station and infirmary, £13,750 ; and for purchase of leasehold premises in Basing hall-street, £14,000. In July last a complaint was made by the Coal, Corn, and Finance Committee that in consequence of the neglect of an important standing order of the Court no provision had been made for meeting that large outlay of an extraordinary character, except in the case of £26,700 for the repair of Guildhall. Again, the Corporation are about to expend £420,000 for the site of the proposed meat and poultry market in Smithfield, and for the construction of the new street in connection with it, on the credit of the market tolls, in addition to £200,000 in the erection of the superstructure, for which latter sum they expect to be re couped by the rents of shops in the market. With all this vast outlay in prospect their leases of the Finsbury estate will fall in at Christmas, 1867, by which in one swoop they will for ever lose about £13,000 a year. It would be rather out of place, perhaps, to arnedlerinheerreec theinasmuch tn a a t prospectivehlcdogs bridge of those in r aising llolborn-valley, penditure by the Corporation 0 new estimated at £600,000, Blackfriars, estimated at £350,020, those great works will not be borne out of the current re venue of the city, but be chargeable on specific funds, in the hands of tho Corporation, under the authority of the acts of Parliament. The ordinary revenue of the Corporation is derived prin cipally from rents, from fines on the renewal of leases, from the produce of the various markets, of which there are five, and from duties on corn and fruit. In 1860 it amounted to £236,783, in 1861 to £202,353, in 1862 to £166,105, and in STATE OP TRADE. MANCHESTER, Sept, 6.—The market for shipping yar-an has been very dull, and there has been no business doing for any quarter. Fine yarns are particularly flat, and spinners are rather anxious sellers. It is thought by some that if the telegrams now due from India should be as en couraging as the last they may lead to some improvement ; but it can hardly be said that such hopes are generally or very sanguinely held. The market for home-trade yarns 18 very dull, and there is but little inclination to buy on the part of manufacturers, who look with considerable un easiness to the advices from America and to the effect which these have already produced on the money-market in this country. They are buying only for immediate re p quirements, and those who are not in urgent want of yar as for their mills prefer postponing purchases. There see ms to be a growing determination both on the part of spinr sirs and manufacturers to lessen production and to dose their mills unless the prospects of the trade imp rl)ve. In the cloth-market things are worse, if possible, that f in yarns, and sellers have been not only without business, but without offers. Merchants generally seem determined for the present to abstain from buying. Cloths could, un doubtedly, be purchased on easier terms than on Tuef day last, though to what extent it is utterly impossible to say, in the absence of offers to test the market. The acco ants from nearly all markets, home and foreign, as to the weight of stocks on hand are favourable, and as to prices ; but other influences. before adverted to, seem to outwetr.k all these considerations, and whatever weight they way ji tally deserve, it is certain that cotton goods appear to have boen unsaleable in Manchester to-day. Messrs. John Slagg :and Co. report : " Our mark,t is, if possible, duller thnn last week. Offers of any sort aro hardly obtainable, and the day closes air lost without operations of any sort. Althrmgh we have some what reduced our quotations, they still only nominally re present the value of goods." LEEDS, 6th.—There has been a limited attendance of buyers in the cloth halls this morning, and but few good s were purchased. Till the stocks of autumn and winter g00e,,, now in the hands of the large houses have been reduced ay purchases by the retail dealers it is likely that our mar'af3t will be of a quiet character. At the same time, also, th e trade at the warehouses is not likely to be very brisk ; tut a full seasonable business continues to bo done, and them is no lack of work among the manufacturers. Wools are firmly held at last week's price, and the same may be said as to goods in general, The flax trade is steady, and the manufacturers are well employed. NOTTINGHAM, 6th.--At this Exchange-hall today the attendance was moderate. 'rho demand for lace yarns was slow, but prices underwent no material change. Hosiery yarns were firm, at late rates. Silks maintained their value. Brown nets a slow sale. Late prices were, however, for the most part made. ROCHDALE, sth.—The flannel market was brisk to-day, there being a good attendance of buyers, who purchased freely of almost all kinds of goods. Upon the whole, how ever, plain flannels of medium and low qualities sold best. The manufacturers keep very well engaged, and they are far from being anxious to take large orders for future de livery, except at the highest current rates. Yorkshire goods are not in quite so much demand as lately, but prices are firm. Thera is good business doing in the wool trade, and last•week's rates are steadily supported. The Price of Gold. The quotation of gold at Paris is about 2i per mille pm., and the short exchange on London is 25.30 per £1 sterling. On comparing these rates with the English Mint price of £3 17s. 104 d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold is nearly 3-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 125 per mars and the short exchange on London is 13.5} per £1 sterling. Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about 1-loth per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg. The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at 130 days' sight is quoted 278 to 280 per cent., and the pre mium on gold 157 to 1581 per cent. Gold still Continues t 43 be imported in very moderate quantities. BARNET GREAT CATTLE FAIR, Monday, Sept. 5. —This great autumn cattle fair, held annually at Barnet, chiefly for ,the sale of store;beasts, opened to-day, and brought together a very large gathering of agriculturists and others interested in cattle from nearly all counties. The supply of stock was in the aggregate far below the usual average. Welsh cattle did not comprise one-third the usual show, and were of inferior character. The Devon beasts were moderately represented by cattle in good condition. The Hereford stock were a miserable show, and consisted of bulls and plain steers, most of the best cattle having been made off as beef. Shorthorn steers were short in supply and in lean condition, and notwithstanding the very limited ex hibition of store bullocks, the demand was exceedinglY dull, which is attributable to the general failure in the growth of swede turnip crop this year, which forms the staple commo dity in tho fatting shed. this irretrievable lose of the root crop is to farmers a calamity, and is suggestive of insure mountable impediments, as the necessity of fatting beasts for the purpose of obtaining manure an essential el emen t of high class farming, w hi c h must this season b e p ar ti a ll y relinquished. Tho fair was divided into sections, each being i steers, i acn £S to £o—d o . h e if ers , £6 to condition, n d wets tei roon £l3 to £ls—/Corth w denominated by the class of stock to which they were as signed. Tho follo win g were the p rice s obtained :—Welsh £7_-full beasts,,usrgalol,,t,nzworl6nn-ytrot-so/ d nlB . good iaist—Largnot sold. Hereford b e beasts, £l4 to £l6, and small inferior bred „w er e, £lO to ill. Business limited. Devons—ln this divi sion the demand was more active. Well bred steers made £l4 to £ ls —inferior do., £ll to £l 2—and steers £7 to £9. Shorthorn beasts—Largo, well•grown steers, £l3 to £l6, and second quality, £lO to £l2—and shorthorn stock heifers, £9 to £lO. The Scotch fair—The show consisted of Scotch runts, which sold at from 4to 5 guineas. Some herds of Highland steers brought £l6 to £l7—polled Scots, £l2 to XI-I—do. heifers, £ll to £l3. Much of the best descript ions sold off. Dairying cattle—Large framed Yorkshire bred full milch cows sold readily to London cowkeepers at front £2l to £2s—small shorthorn dairying cows, £l5 to £lB— cows in full milk, £l3 to £l6 —Dutch cows, £ll to £l2—well bred Yorkshire bulls, £l3 to £lB—and short horn in calf heifers, £ll to £l4. Irish heifers and steers £4 to XS—Dutch do., £5 to £B. There was a large herd of miscellaneous stock scattered over the town and roadside, and which did not command attention. In the horse fair there is a glut of horseflesh of every description. Salem will be resumed to-morrow with the cattle fair. i 4. 0 t— as 0 0 Ct 0 ,dotz ri, c: co I JO ir. 41 N co, I go 0 ~......, Q 0 .
